Washington D.C hear our plea, make the election system free from financial influence NOWI'd like to send a petition to the White House, Senate and House of Representatives to declare that it is time to reform the way they are paid and how they raise capital for campaigning. Not tomorrow, not after a committee is called to order, or a study is done on the idea. The time is now, they can either hear our plea or we will elect and place people in power who are not on the payroll of a corporation or using private wealth for an unfair advantage. I grow tired of the current debate in the halls of government as I can't tell the true politicians from those who are there to make money at the expense of their fellow citizens. We on this petition, as but one voice of its many but important none the less, request that the government of the United States of America make a high priority of changing the way elected officials are paid and how they raise capital for their campaigns. This is our request, will they honor it? Make your voice heard and sign this petition to let the nation know how many of its citizens are tired of a too easily corruptible government being in place. They may ignore us but we won't give up until the system is fixed once and for all. Thanks for your time and courage.25 of 100 SignaturesCreated by luis hunter garcia

Limit Corruption & Set Term LimitsSenators & Congressmen spend much of their lives in office, allowing them to be bought and sold by big money and special interests groups. Like the President, Congress should be subject to term limits to limit the possibility of corruption.22 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Justin Davis

Label Vegan and Vegetarian FoodsAs the list of animal-derived ingredients in foods and other products grows (gelatin, glycerin, some "natural flavors", etc.), vegans and vegetarians have an increasingly difficult time shopping and eating out at restaurants. Mandatory labeling on foods (and shampoo, toothpaste, etc.) and menus would get rid of the guesswork for this growing demographic, presumably increasing their options and promoting commerce.60 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Neal Babcock

Support White House NESARA PetitionNESARA (National Economic Security and Reformation Act) is a bill, already passed into law in the U.S. government, but kept under gag order for many years by some members of the 1%. If enough people sign the W.H. Petition (20,000 - 25,000) President Obama will announce and enact it. This bill will bring sweeping changes, not only to America but to the world and will address and solve all of the issues of the "Occupy Wall Streeters". link: http://wh.gov/4d5517 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Ramana Dorothy Karkus

Constitutional AmendmentAmend our Constitution to deny person hood to corporations. Corporations are not born and do not die. They are government created entities to sell products and services and should be controlled by government not the other way around.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by James R. Green
